I can remember the last time I saw you

As soon as our eyes met, we held one another

Your chest pulsed nervously

With every beat of your heart

The heart that touched everyone you met

~

I can remember your smile

Your lips spread wide across your beautiful face

Your eyes glistening, sparkling

So full of shimmer and life

~

Yet that life, that breath of happiness

Faded, didn’t leave altogether

But faded into the wind

The wind that once blew through your hair

Yet still does because you’re there

~

You walk on the wind now, instead of the earth

Dancing through each breeze

Your words are the laughter among people now

The sounds of each tree rustling, and shaking its leaves

~

A tear for every kiss,

For every hug,

For every good-bye

Yet this is our last good-bye, we don’t have to say it anymore

~

Remember each Fourth of July

Each Christmas, Thanksgiving, Birthday

Most of all, Remember Us

We’ll never forget You

~
